San Diego, CA, USA
Martial arts anchors a varied summer day at Manna’s, where children ages five and older can combine age-specific training with sports, games, creative projects, chess, and local outings. Campers take part in martial arts classes during the week while also rotating through indoor and outdoor activities. The program includes park and community-pool visits, arts and crafts, drawing, and theme-based activities, giving children several different ways to stay active and engaged.
Families can use the camp flexibly, choosing from one to five days in a week. Regular camp hours run from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM, with drop-off and pickup available within that window. The camp operates from Manna’s San Diego martial arts facility, which includes dedicated training floors and a multipurpose room used for school-age care and summer sports camps.
The experience is a good fit for children who enjoy movement, structured skill practice, games, and variety. Martial arts and self-defense are central parts of the program, while chess, crafts, sports, and field trips broaden the week beyond the training floor. Required enrollment and summer forms must be completed for participation.

The camp combines structured martial arts instruction with a changing mix of summer activities. A typical week includes two or three age-specific martial arts classes, with self-defense and skill development forming a consistent part of the experience. Wednesdays include chess instruction, and the broader activity mix can include sports, indoor and outdoor games, arts and crafts, drawing, theme activities, and field trips.
Campers may attend from one to five days in a selected week rather than following a single fixed attendance pattern. The program uses Manna’s martial arts facility as its home base and also includes trips to a local park and community pool. This creates a balance between training-floor activities and time away from the facility.
